Liu Zhimo blurrily opened his eyes and looked at the Li Qingling in front of his eyes. His face was slightly red, raised his head, and moved away from her.moved two steps and stood up. In order to hide his uneasiness, he quickly reached for his bamboo basket and said, "Let"s go!"
"Zhi Moge?" Li Qingling turned his head to look at Liu Zhimo, and stopped in his tracks. When was near, they walked shoulder to shoulder, carefully teaching him some skills to survive in the wild.
Returning to his senses, Liu Zhimo walked over in large strides. Seeing Li Qingling using his blade to cut a wild chicken that was not completely dead, he was shocked in his heart as he looked at her proficient technique, "You"re very skilled." Not often, not so familiar.
Startled, Li Qingling pushed this matter back onto her dead father without a change in expression, "My father learned it from him, you know. My father is an expert at hunting, I learned a lot from him."Liu Zhimo did not suspect anything and nodded. What can I do for her?
In this forest deep in the mountains, he still needed her to take care of him."Go and collect some firewood!" This was not a deep mountain. If he were to go alone, there would be no danger.
When Liu Zhimo returned from gathering a pile of firewood, Li Qingling was already boiling water on the simple stove. Seeing that Liu Zhimo had returned, she called out to him, then lowered his head and lit the fire.
Liu Zhimo quietly put down the firewood and sat beside her. He folded the firewood and handed it to her so that she could cook it.
The two of them did not say anything, but they seemed to have a tacit understanding of each other.
When the water was boiled, Li Qingling placed the wild chicken into the jar. After burning it for a while, he took it out and shed its fur, and in a short while, he had cleaned a wild chicken.
The pheasant weighed more than a catty, and the two of them had enough to eat.
"Zhi Moge, help me cut a sharp stick for me to use as a weapon." Seeing that Liu Zhimo had nothing to do, Li Qingling asked him again.
Liu Zhimo quickly responded, he crawled up and found a straight log, and started to cut it with his blade. Li Qingling then made a wooden shelf and roasted the wild chicken on it, without needing her to hold it, it was convenient for her to take it.
The two of them worked together to roast the wild chicken. Only then did Li Qingling exhale lightly and sit on the ground, turning his head to look at Liu Zhimo who was staring at the bonfire.If Liu Zhimo"s parents were still here, Liu Zhimo would be sitting in the study hall reading a book instead of asking for a living in this deep mountains and plains.
"Why are you looking at me?" Liu Zhimo saw her staring at him blankly again. This time, his face was not red, and extended a finger to pat Li Qingling"s forehead.
"You look good." Li Qingling laughed out loud. She really felt that she had picked up a great bargain, to have such a handsome fiance. "Your skin is so white."
She touched her own face. Since she was young, she had been working in the fields. She had been exposed to the sun every day, and she could not eat well. Her face was yellow, black, and ugly.
Seeing Liu Zhimo"s white and tender skin, she was genuinely envious. He pinched his fingers, really wanting to touch it again.
However, when she saw someone"s face darken, she pursed her lips into a smile and suppressed the thoughts in her heart.Liu Zhimo turned his body, and avoided Li Qingling"s gaze, not allowing her to look.
His skin was like his mother"s, very white, but he didn"t like it. He felt that a man"s skin was so white, so unmanly.
He had also secretly gone to bask in the sun, wanting to tan his skin. Unfortunately, he was unable to do so.Li Qingling carefully moved his b.u.t.t behind him and stuck out her head to look at him. He detected his and angrily reached out his hand to snort a few times, "What are you doing looking at me?
This was her true personality, right? Her shy appearance from before was definitely an act.
Liu Zhimo was angry and amused at the same time.Li Qingling no longer looked at him, but instead looked at the bonfire, as if he was looking through it at an unknown place.
"Zhi Moge, were you willing to marry me back then?" She quietly asked without the slightest shyness on his face.
She was not shy, but Liu Zhimo felt a little embarra.s.sed. He swallowed his saliva, and only made a sound after a while.
He used to be forced, but now he looked forward to it.
Li Qingling looked at him in shock, took out the seasoning she brought and sprinkled it on the roasted chicken, then asked: "I"m not good-looking, how would you be willing?"
She …Seeing that Li Qingling was not even a little bit shy, Liu Zhimo"s restless heart gradually calmed down, "Father"s orders …" He couldn"t think of a good reason, so he could only use that reason to gag her.
In fact, it was his parents" order.
Li Qingling raised his eyebrows, "If we get married and find out that we can"t get along with each other, wouldn"t that be very painful?" After saying this, she felt that something wasn"t right. This was ancient times, and many couples hadn"t seen each other before their marriage. They could be considered quite good friends. "Fortunately, we"re familiar with each other."
"..."
He didn"t even know how to reply to that.
Li Qingling did not dare continue with this topic. He knew that Liu Zhimo was very clever, if she were to be discovered, he would treat her like a monster!
"Alright!" Li Qingling took down the roasted chicken and took a deep breath. It was too fragrant, her saliva was almost going to fall out. She cut off a chicken leg and gave it to Liu Zhimo.
Liu Zhimo took it, blew on it, and nibbled on it, "Delicious." It really was delicious, how many more surprises did Li Qingling have to give him?He felt that when he tried to understand her, she was constantly refreshing his perspective, attracting his desire to continue understanding her.
"Of course." Li Qingling proudly raised his head, cut off the other chicken leg, and impatiently started eating, it had been a long time since she had eaten.
In her previous life, when she went hunting in the mountains with her father, she had to roast one each time. How nostalgic!
The two of them were like reincarnated hungry ghosts as they chewed on the meat. Not long after, a wild chicken was killed by them.Li Qingling licked his fingers. It was so delicious that she wanted to have another one.
"Eat and drink to your heart"s content. Time to work." She stood up and ran over to the stream to wash her hands. Seeing a wild gra.s.s fish swimming, her eyes flashed, and before Liu Zhimo could come over, she pinched her index finger.
A few drops of spirit water came out from her finger and fell into the water. In a moment, a dozen gra.s.s fishes were circling around her hand. She picked up the basket that was placed to one side and scooped a spoonful of it into the water.
With this scoop, she scooped up around ten or so gra.s.s fishes, which was even more than last time. She cried out in alarm, "Zhi Moge, quickly come and take a look, I"ve caught a lot of fish."Hearing that, Liu Zhimo immediately ran over, he lowered his head and looked, and saw the gra.s.s fish that was dancing in the basket, his eyes were wide open, "This … "How did you catch this?" He caught so much in one grab?
"I scooped it out of the basket."That simple?
Liu Zhimo looked at the stream and saw two or three little gra.s.s fishes."I was just lucky." Li Qingling grinned, but she felt extremely guilty. These past few days, her fingers had been drinking water everyday, which made her a little suspicious.
In her previous life, she had also read novels about rebirth, such as s.p.a.ces and spiritual waters. It was possible that the heavens had favored her by giving her a golden finger.
However, she couldn"t do it at home. Coming here, she could do it. Just that one try was enough to confirm her thoughts.
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Li Qingling held onto his blade, "Zhi Moge, let"s clean up the fish first before we go.""Alright …"
After the two cleaned up the fish, they continued to walk towards the mountain.
Along the way, Li Qingling not only shot and killed prey with his arrows, he also dug traps with Liu Zhimo. She wanted to see if he could get some wild chickens and rabbits, she remembered what his second brother had told her before, that living to kill prey was slightly more expensive than dying."Xiao Ling." Liu Zhimo squatted on the ground and called Li Qingling.
Li Qingling picked up the wild rabbit he just shot and put it into the basket. "What"s wrong?" She walked over. "What are you looking at?"Liu Zhimo looked up at her, and his eyes curved into a smile, "Rabbit." It turned out that there were a few small rabbits in the gra.s.s.
He approached the figure and looked at the figure on its finger. It really was a rabbit.
She smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Take him home and take care of him." She looked at the small rabbit nest and had some thoughts in her mind.
This was a pleasant surprise, and Liu Zhimo was very happy in his heart. He pulled some dry gra.s.s and placed it into the basket, treating it as a simple rabbit nest, and then grabbed those little rabbits and put them into the basket.These little rabbits, Ruo Rou should like them a lot.
